Py “LOCAL INTELLIGENCE,
“A TeRerric Stonu.—On Thursday
“fm-this section, passed over the city. Rain
, and hail, accompanied by vivid flashes of
lightning, poured down alternately, and
in less than two hours the strests were
flooded and in some stores water stood sev. ’
eral inches deep. The water from Kelsey
“ravine broke through the alley back of
Beiutti’s store, into Commercial street, and
carried. with it sand, gravel boulders and
wood, far down the street, flooding the
atones and banking up.thewand on the
side ‘walks. The flume carrying water un: .
& he town became choked up and the.’
r made its way over the lot formerly
scant by Lancaster's livery stable to
_ Main street. Yesterday morning cobble
stones weighing several pounds were scattered along the street from the lot to the
_ bridge. ‘Above the Union Hotel the ra_ vine was choked up with drift wood that
damed the water. Aconsiderable amount
found its way into the' billiard room, and
the dining room was flooded. The posts
upon which the billiard tables rested were
carried away, and the tables had to be removed. Fortunately the water found an
opening and the chanael was clea before any great damage was done. Several
' places of business on Broad street, never
before reached by the water were flooded.
Deer Creek end all other streams were
higher than ever known before. The
bridge on the ‘Washington road which was
built last Summer was swept away. Another on east Broad street was carried
away,and the one at the foot of Nevada
street so undermined that it was impassable yesterday. The storm lasted about
three hours and was really terrible. -We
have seen many who felt the shock from
the lightning and the lond peals of thunder shook the earth to its foundatidns.—
Fences in every direction were leveled to
‘the ground, and great damage was done
by the violent winds that accompanied the
storm. We do not believe that the storm
was general throughout the State, for it
_ seemed that all the power of the elements
were concentrated upon this city, .
THE THEATRE.—On the opening night,
notwithstanding the storm, Alice Kings* bury was greeted by a crowded house. —
Few actresses have so won upon the public as Miss Kingsbury during her short
stay in this State, and all who have seen
her pronounce her the best actress they
have ever heard. She is handsome, graceful and seems to be the character she represents. In “Fanchon” the actress is forgotten and the audience sees and thinks
only of the “Little Cricket.” The expressions of approval at the play were universal with the audience, and the management may rest assured of having crowded
houses as long as the company remains.—
Jobn McCullough is first rate and his personification of the “Barbeauds” was excellent. Kate Denth always does well —
The entire company forms an excellent
support of Miss Kingsbury, and it is seldom that so many talented artists visit
the interior in one company. The play
for this evening is the “Little Barefoct.,’
We advise all to go and see it as it is one
ofthe best.
Busy.—Politicians a are busy about “re?
construction,” so-are the people generally,
a large number being engaged every day
in buying and carrying off goods from the
mammoth clothing emporium of Banner
Brothers. This famous establishment has
always a full and complete stock of gen~ ‘tlemen’s fine elothing, furnishing goods,
hats, boots, shoes, and rubber clothing of
every description, which they oe pee
ing of at extremely low rates.
_ Mors Damace—The bridge near Rough
_ and Ready was swept away on Thursday
night and the Mfyeville stage was detainwas very in Penn Valley and great
Aad mage wasdone to property. At Hughes’
Wenth, on the old Grass Valley road a
~ “large house was blown down and a large
ree oes tenteed.
